We have been able to map out our relief work from last week in response to the Yushu quakes. In order to grasp the big picture of the Plateau Perspectives continued relief work in Yushu we thought it would be nice to share it with you as well (click here). Also, make sure and give the video below a quick look. This video footage coincides well with the timeline and will hopefully give you an idea of how extensive the quake damage in Yushu really is.

In other news, we were able to get two fresh doctors into camp this morning for continued support of our medical relief work. We are still up and running in Yushu and doctors and nurses continue to see between 150 to 200 patients all while providing extremely thorough medical care. We continue to be pleased to be able to support the Yushu community at this time.

Yesterday we awoke to two inches of snow on the ground in Xining. Today was Yushu’s turn with snow falling for much of the morning. Our medical camp staff made the most of it and jokingly surprised the Xining staffers with this homemade sign reading “Merry Christmas from Yushu April 22, 2010!”. While most locations in North America are experiencing spring-like conditions, the Tibetan plateau’s weather during this time of year can be very temperamental. Nonetheless, we were all happy to see the medical team in good spirits.

Relief operations have been running very smoothly at our Yushu medical camp. Patients continued to file through and the doctors on site are averaging close to 150-200 patients per day. The medical camp staff are approaching treatment of nearly 1,000 patients during our time in Yushu. We remain excited to see that our water filtering systems continue to provide fresh drinking water for the people of Yushu. Needless to say we are thrilled with this initial relief response in Yushu and are making preparations to move into new phases of sustainable medical relief work in Yushu.
